Project update

Finals week is among us! It’s tough working on both the project and studying for finals, however, Amina and I have made some strides in figuring out the research that needed to be involved in order reach the bottom of our research question. We adjucsted our claim to ask: which presidential candidate uses more pessimism in their tweets?

The original question was too biased based on what made a notion a bash or insult. Instead, we are using a program that notifies us the overall sentiment within a given phrase, or in our case, 3000 phrases. Therefore, we simply have to measure the overall sentiment among the presidential candidates to figure out which uses more pessimism, and display this using a carefully designed video.
